Chapter 1718: He’s Back

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Long Mei looked behind Xiao Ying. Seeing that it was not Long Ming but a stranger who was here, she asked in confusion, “Sister-in-law, is my brother not here?”

Xiao Ying nodded. “He went abroad.”

​ 

“He went abroad? I received a message from him yesterday asking me to come back.” Long Mei did not know why Long Ming wanted her to come back, so she shrugged. “I asked him what happened, but he didn’t say anything. He’s so mysterious.”

Xiao Ying’s heart skipped a beat.

Long Ming had sent a message to Long Mei, but he had not called her nor messaged her in the past two days. A trace of sadness flashed past her eyes.

Young Master Qin walked over and lowered his head to ask Xiao Ying, “Is she your friend?”

“Long Ming’s younger sister.” Xiao Ying adjusted her emotions very quickly and said to Long Mei with a smile, “This is a friend I met in S Country. He’s here on a vacation and my sister asked him to bring something to me.”

Young Master Qin glanced at Long Mei. Seeing that she had her boyfriend with her, he nodded at her without any of his usual frivolity.

“Mei’er, I’ve reserved a room. Do you want to come with me?”

Long Mei glanced at her boyfriend. Seeing that he was silent, she smiled and shook her head. “Let’s eat tomorrow. When my brother comes back, we can eat together.”

Xiao Ying did not force her.

After they arrived at the private room and ordered the dishes, Young Master Qin could not help but complain, “The Burmese King’s younger sister looks like a beautiful and independent girl. I didn’t expect her to be so afraid of her boyfriend.”

“Afraid?” Xiao Ying did not understand why Young Master Qin would use such a word.

“When you asked her if she wanted to eat together, her boyfriend pursed his lips, and she said that she wouldn’t join us.”

Xiao Ying had not noticed this detail.

The last time, she had heard from Long Mei that her boyfriend doted on her a lot. Besides, with Long Mei’s personality and charm, there was really no need for her to suck up to a man!

Her boyfriend was indeed handsome, but he was not handsome enough for others to treat him as a god!

What was Long Mei attracted to for her to be so devoted to him?

Seeing Xiao Ying in a daze, Young Master Qin raised his eyebrows and asked, “What are you thinking about?”

“It’s nothing.”

Young Master Qin stared at Xiao Ying for a few seconds before he suddenly asked, “Did you have a conflict with the Burmese King recently?”

Xiao Ying’s expression did not change. “How did you know?”

“My sixth sense.”

“A man’s sixth sense is not accurate.”

“Okay, maybe I’m thinking too much.”

In another room.

Long Mei had finished ordering and when she saw the man’s gaze on her, she blushed shyly. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“My baby is beautiful.”

Long Mei glared at him. “I know I’m pretty, but I don’t believe that you haven’t met a girl who’s prettier than me.”

“I did.”

Hearing his words, Long Mei was unhappy again.

She knew that there was always someone better, but no matter which woman it was, she hoped to be the most beautiful in her boyfriend’s eyes.


“Who is it?”

“Your sister-in-law. She looks more beautiful than you.”

Long Mei clenched her fists and punched the bad man. “Why are you so annoying?”

“I was just joking.” The man held Long Mei’s delicate hand and bit her finger. “In my heart, Mei’er is the most beautiful.”

Before Long Mei could smile, he pulled her into his arms. He wrapped his arms around her slender waist and rested his chin on her thin shoulders, his pleasant masculine scent spilling into her ears.

She shrank back with a blush. “Although there are only the two of us in the room, you still have to pay attention to your image!”

“What are you afraid of? If they see it, then so be it. Anyway, I’m hugging my baby.” The man bit her earlobe.

Long Mei’s face was flushed from embarrassment. Because her back was facing the man, she did not see the complicated emotions in the man’s wild and arrogant eyes.

“Baby, your sister-in-law is so beautiful. Is your brother so reassured that he allows her to have a meal alone with another man?” The man pressed against Long Mei’s ear and continued, “You said that when your brother sent you a message last night, your sister-in-law’s expression seemed to have changed slightly. According to my guess, they must have had a conflict.”

Hearing her boyfriend’s words, Long Mei could not help but frown.

She wouldn’t have felt it if he had not said anything.

However, Xiao Ying was her sister-in-law. Why was he observing her so carefully?

Long Mei struggled to get off the man’s lap and returned to her chair.

The man looked at Long Mei’s tensed expression and could not help kissing her forehead. “I just mentioned it casually. Are you still angry?”

“That’s my sister-in-law. If you keep staring at her, my brother might find out and gouge your eyes out.”

The man laughed at Long Mei’s words. “I’ll only stare at my baby in the future.”

After Xiao Ying and Young Master Qin finished their meal, they returned to the palace with their bags.

Seeing that Xiao Ying had returned, the butler hurriedly took the things in her hands. “Miss Ying, you’re finally back. The King returned to the palace two hours ago.”

Xiao Ying hummed faintly.

He had not called or sent her a message when he came back, and she had not known that he was coming back.

The butler looked at Xiao Ying’s cold attitude and thought of how cold sweat appeared on the King’s forehead when he had not seen Miss Ying’s cold face in the palace.

When the two of them argued, they were also tense and fearful as servants.

“Miss Ying, have you had dinner?”

“Yes.”

“The King hasn’t eaten anything since he returned. Miss Ying, do you want to accompany the King to eat something?”

“I’m full.”

The butler was speechless.

Xiao Ying changed her shoes and went in. She did not see Long Ming in the living room. She washed her hands and went to the amusement park to find Wan Bao.

After playing with Wan Bao for half an hour, she brought her back to her room to take a bath.

After showering, Xiao Ying had just finished putting on Wan Bao’s clothes when there was a knock on the door, followed by Long Ming’s deep voice. “Wan Bao.”

“Cool Uncle.”

Long Ming walked into the room, holding the gift he had brought back for Wan Bao. Wan Bao took the gift excitedly, thanking him obediently before saying sweetly, “Cool Uncle, where have you been the past two days? Mommy and I missed you so much!”

“You missed me?” Long Ming’s dark eyes swept toward Xiao Ying. She did not look at Long Ming as she straightened Wan Bao’s pajamas. She said coldly, “It’s late. Mommy will tell you a story. Sleep early!”

Wan Bao blinked her bright eyes and looked at the cool Long Ming standing by the side. She said softly, “Mommy, I want to hear Cool Uncle tell a story, okay?”

Xiao Ying didn’t say anything. She left the princess room and gave the father and daughter some space.

Long Ming told Wan Bao three stories and Wan Bao fell asleep as she listened to him.

Long Ming came out of the princess’s room and returned to the master bedroom. He furrowed his eyebrows slightly when he did not see the woman on the bed.
